Britain in a Day Q & A Session

I've attached 4 links to the Q & A session after the preview screening of Britain in a Day at the Media Museum in Bradford. I've had to edit it into 4 parts due to upload restrictions.

The Director, Morgan Matthews, discusses the production with an invited audience.

It was recorded on an iphone so the video quality is poor but the audio is OK - worth a watch especially as you have all participated in similar (smaller scale) projects.

PART 1:

PART 2:

PART 3:

PART 4:

Britain in a Day

Britain in a Day to be screened on BBC2 at 9pm on Monday 11th June.


You should watch it and see how it compares to all the viral videos that you have been making this year. You never know, you might even see some footage that you submitted! That's if you did submit anything.

A group of students won the 24 hour Five Lamps Film challenge this past weekend. The winner gets to use a RED camera for a week and a dinner with Mike Hodges (dir. Get Carter), plus other prizes. 

Something to think about...

Amy have you had confirmation about the submission of the film?

Corporate Video Work

I have been looking at blogs and most people are missing all or some of the production planning for the Heritage/Trent & Dove project

The videos are very good so it would be a shame if we have to drop this unit - so can we get the planning on blogs as soon as possible?

2 Be able to plan corporate or promotional programmes to a brief

Production requirements: client’s specification; audience needs; using appropriate techniques (single camera, multi-camera, sound dubs, studio, location); using appropriate formats

Planning: scheduling; production and management roles; monitoring progress; identifying logistics

Resources: time; budget; physical, eg equipment, location, studio, properties; people, eg crew, talent

cheers,

Mark

Location Recce (23rd)

@Amy - minibus is booked. can only take the 3 people you've mentioned as they are on the risk assessment

Final Heritage Request

Don't panic Alex....

Angela has emailed me asking for:

another still of Dereece, Tom, and Lisa, as the pics Rob used for the credits are not very complimentary when added for the book

also Amy was going to send me a written version of her story, would you be able to ask her to email it to me please

can someone sort out the stills and can Amy do the story? Thanks!

RE: Manchester Deposits

I have been told this morning that the deposit is non-refundable. However, there are funds available from the college if a learner wants to attend the trip but cannot due to cost. Chris is able to supply details if you are interested in attending.

Deposit refunds

I have spoken to management and they have said that a deposit is a deposit, i.e. it is unlikely that you will get a refund. However, no final decision will be made until next week.

I'd like to add that Chris paid the full amount after he spoke to the group as everyone seemed keen to go and assured him that they wanted to go. Obviously, we understand that there are certain circumstances where people must drop out but if people begin to drop out en masse with no real reason then that is very disappointing.

As I say, the decision regarding deposit refunds will be decided next week but be aware that Chris has paid a lot of money for this trip [he cancelled a photography show] and £50 covers a small fraction of what the trip is costing.

On another note, we need to be far more proactive in organising the shoot - we aren't making enough progress at the moment and it seems that there is a general lack of enthusiasm. This is a fantastic opportunity - use it!

CIQ Friday May the 4th be with you 2012

Please post here my Padawans....use the force to complete the CIQ. Looking at yesterdays response the force isn't strong with most of you.

A guilty pleasure perhaps???
